Glaze Ingredients

  • 4 oz white chocolate baking bar (such as Bakers or Ghirardelli, no chocolate chips)
  • 1/4 cup cream (2 oz)
  • 2/3 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Chop White Chocolate: Finely chop the 4 oz white chocolate bar into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl to ensure even melting.
  2. Heat Cream: Microwave the 1/4 cup cream for about 45 seconds until hot but not boiling to avoid curdling the chocolate.
  3. Combine and Cover: Pour the hot cream over the chopped white chocolate. Cover the bowl with a plate and let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt gently.
  4. Stir Mixture: After 5 minutes, stir the chocolate and cream together with a spatula until smooth and fully combined.
  5. Add Powdered Sugar: Gradually whisk in the 2/3 cup powdered sugar until the glaze is glossy and smooth, free of lumps.
  6. Thicken and Drizzle: Let the glaze rest for 5 minutes at room temperature to thicken slightly. Then drizzle it over bundt cakes or your favorite desserts for a beautiful, sweet finish.

Notes

  • Use high-quality white chocolate bars instead of chips for a smoother glaze.
  • Microwave cream carefully; overheating can cause it to separate.
  • Adjust powdered sugar quantity to taste or desired thickness.
  • If glaze becomes too thick, gently warm it in short intervals to loosen before using.
  • Store any leftover glaze covered in the refrigerator and gently reheat before reuse.
